The Summer Girl Arrives.

The summer girl is here.
As a matter Of fact she is here In very
considerable numbers.
To be seen in her glory one should visit
the big bridge, OF which she takes full pos
session. The usually selfpossessed bridge
policeman is very subdued person indeed,
but withal is very happy In his subiugated
state. There are two varieties OF the sum
mer girl. One is from the city. She affects
nuns yelling, tricot cloth, navy blue, bangs,
low shoes, pugs, bright eyes, and n general
air of loveliness, combined with an 81.
know how to take care-of- myself manner,
which never fails to create an impression
and to keep the omnipresent masher at Il
respectful distance.
The other variety is the summer girl
from the country. She may be from "up the
state" from lIoboken, Jersey City, or Long
Island. II is just the same; she is always
soft, shrinking, and tender. She runs TO
fluffy hair, ribbons, white gowns, and yield
ing sweetness. She does not like the pug ,
so instead she brlsgs with her captive in
the shape of young man, who is evidently
unused to the big city, and who makes the
fact more painfully apparent by pretending
to know all about IL.
This summer girl is lost In astonishment
at the working OF the bridge cable, shrieks
with delight at the appearance of Miss Lib
erty, and makes draughts on her compan-
ions bureau Of information that fairly
staggers him. She wants to know where
Brodie jumped from. lie points to a spot
500 feet nearer Brooklyn than the real
place and on the wrong roadway. She
wants to see Trinity steeple. lie calmly
shows her that of Old st. Paul. She asks
what the old shot tower in the swamp is.
He assures her 1t is an imitation Of Bunker
Hill monument. She wants to know the
direction to her rural home. He points
out course which, II taken, would land
one well out IN the Atlantic ocean.
The country summer girl is home pro d.
uct, aud one to he proud OF. The bridge
policemen dOte on her. So does every one
who has met her. She Is attractive and
unique, and she may be seen any day on
the bid bridge. 1t is worth taking a few
hours off to spend them on the promenade
just to study her She VIII remain with us
only during the present pleasant weather.
After that che flies to Coney Island and is

BOsTON'S MANNERS,
New Yorker Thinks Them Too Con-
ceited and Impudent.

ceited and Impudent.
Philadelphia Call.
A New Yorker, who evidently has no love
for Boston, ran across a CdH reporter In
the Broad street station last night. "The
trouble with Boston people is that they are
too conceited They think they know 1t
ALL" he said. "Go around the Hub as |
have done and you will believe what say.
When was there recently stepped into
the Parker House and asked the clerk at
the news stand for a copy of paper that is
published in Cambridge. NO such paper:
never heard OF 1t, snapped the clerk. Then
ne went on reading the 'Gory Galoot's
Graft or some such book. You know

me mad to have him say mo such paper

In several stores | visited the clerks

portance that wasn't bit surprised to
lind them lacking in polteness. They
don't include that In their so-caled 'cul.
ture.' Now, here In Philadelphia, every
store Pve been into | found the clerks
polite. why, even in a restaurant the
other day, a waiter approached me and
said: would you like TO see the morning
paper, sirE' Contrast this with what | saw
In Boston dining room. A young man
after eating % cents worth stepped up to
the desk and laid down s. bill. The
burly proprietor looked at the bill and then
at the young man. what did YOU bring In
that for--to show it?' he said. The Young
mans reply wouldn't look well In print at
least the part heard wouldn't, but here's
my train; good day."

SNAKE CHARMING.
The Cost of Tuition and the Rapidity
with which Pupils Learn.
Philadelphia Evening Call

Philadelphia Evening Call,
There are men who teach snake charming
AS business. One of them talking the
other day said women learn the accomplish
ment quicker than the stern0r sex, and fol
low 1t in the museums "ruition costs"
sa Id he, "from $500 to $500, according to
how rapidly they learn. This, of course,
includes the whole thing, not only how to
handle the snakes, but also to do different
tricks with them, which are all combined
In what is known as the snake act. This
consists In making u cap or turban OF the
snake aud putting 1t on the head, making II
sash OF one by arranging II around the body,
a belt by placing 1t around the waist, or Il
pair OF wristlets of small snakes. The act
also includes putting all these ON the per.
son at one time SO that the body is covered
with snakes, eight or nine of them at a time
When covered with them In this way the
woman supports about 200 pounds of
snakes and can scarcely walk.
"rhere is a great deal in knowing the

them with under control, aud then allow
the woman to begin to handle 1t.
"You see, snakes have brains as well rs
| other animals. They never close their eyes,
and watch all the time. The cost OF the
snakes varies from $35 To $3.50 and $500
apiece, and in weight they run from one
hundred pounds down TO thirty, ten, and
even five pounds. All this talk about feed-
Ing snake to make II tame and easy to
handle is nonsense. They are simply like
any other wild animal. In charming we use
no mesmerism or anything OF the kind
It's only TO make them know that you are

Though broken in years and health the
emperor of Germany lives the simple sol
der life Of his youth. The bed on which
he slept for seventy years is one of pine,
without ornamentation OF any kind, and he
rises from 1t regularly between O and !

Beyond big clothespress and mirror his
room is without furniture. His cover by

his military cloak. When he rises he takes

Attempts have occasionally been made to
produce Photographic portraits and views
In colors without the subsequent aid Of the

little success has hitherto attended these
attempts experimentally and none whatever
practically, so far as we are aware. Colored
photography would now, however, appear
to be AN accomplished fact, the difficulties
having been overcome after some twelve
years OF study, experiment, and chemical
research by Mr.. Mayall, Of New Bond
